One of the most common additive manufacturing techniques for fabricating metallic components is laser powder bed fusion, which has demonstrated great potential in fabricating parts with properties exceeding the properties achieved via conventional methods. To fully utilize the process’s potential, a more profound understanding of the microstructure and properties of the laser powder bed fusion processed material is required. This thesis aims to provide new insights into how the microstructure, mechanical properties and productivity are affected by part design and process parameters. The thesis is framed around a detailed investigation of the parts produced in stainless steel 316L.
